Hi,
How do you subset a dataframe so that you only have columns:
1. that contain one or more NAs?
2. that contain factors with greater than or equal to 32 levels?
How do you remove from a dataframe columns**
3. with one or more NA's?
4. that contain factors with greater than or equal to 32 levels?
** I know how to remove columns at a basic level but I am trying to figure out
a more efficient way of performing these particular tasks (my data set has 60
columns).
For NA's I essentially used summary(mtcars) and manually made a note of where
NA's appeared than used:
mtcars1<-mtcars1[,!(names(mtcars1)%in% c("hp","wt","vs"))]
I did something similar for factors with greater than x levels only I used
str(mtcars) to help me identify them.
BTW I know mtcars doesn't have any of these issues. I just used it as a quick
reference.
